LOSE YOURSELF lyrics

[Verse 1]
Opening my eyes for the first time in years
I cannot believe all the loss
All the awful grey
I'm not here
Where am I, where is this?
Suddenly older, less alive
Panicking so far away
Barely a life, sign

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Does anyone believe what I am waking up from?
Faces turn like leaves and then they're gone

[Chorus]
Lose yourself and don't ever look back
I won't be here
Everyone wants an idol
Get lost, I don't need you
When I was stupid and young
I only wanted to be cared for
Bare your heart to whoever will say that you're so real
But I know what you really are
(It's over, b*tch!)

[Verse 2]
I thought I was growing
Because I stopped myself from flinching at anger
So I wouldn't make it worse
I can't believe I never saw it right in front of me
I thought I was becoming a better person
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Does nobody see what's happening?
I can't say anything
When you lashed out, you killed a part of me

[Bridge]
And the sun comes up in a violent arc
No matter where I go
The memory of leaving the city
All I want: a new life, receding
Where did all this go wrong?
What the f*ck

[Chorus]
Lose yourself and don't ever look back
I won't be here
Everyone wants an idol
Get lost, I don't need you
When I was stupid and young
I only wanted to be cared for
Bare your heart to whoever will say that you're so real
But I know what you really are
